Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 Remix lauching in NA Sept. 10, pre-order includes limited edition artbook

Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 Remix will be available exclusively for PlayStation 3 in North America on Sept. 10 and in Europe Sept. 13, Square Enix announced today.

Pre-orders for the title will include a 24-page hardcover artbook featuring sketches, designs and renders from director Tetsuya Nomura, as well as unused artwork and designs previously unreleased in the West. Square Enix notes that the artbook will be available only while supplies last at participating retailers.

Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 Remix includes three games that are the first chronologically in the series' story: Kingdom Hearts Final Mix, Kingdom Hearts Re: Chain of Memories and Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days. Final Mix features content never before released outside of Japan, including additional bosses and new weapons, abilities and cutscenes. 358/2 Days debuts on console in the bundle, as it is currently only available as a Nintendo DS title. Re: Chain of Memories, a console port of Nintendo DS game Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories, was previously unavailable in Europe.
